Ryder's POV:

After the accident in the basement had been cleared up, I ordered a meeting of all the gang members and Harley. They would meet her for the first time and hopefully, no one would piss her off.

Harley say opposite me, studying each gang member that was in the room. She'd glare at someone if they stared at her for too long.

I decided that today was the right time to talk to the everyone about why Harley was actually here, and why she hadn't left yet.

I stood up and everyone became silent.

"Harley will be joining the gang as one of our assassins." I said, the room filled quickly with judgemental and rude opinions.

Silence!" My voice bellowed out and everyone turned to me with questioning eyes.

"Harley is The Shadow, There was a claiming going on between all the gangs. Whoever could find out who The Shadow was, was aloud to capture them and have them as an addition to their gang. Harley knew about the game and she also knew what she was doing when she killed our men, messed with our shipments, or set our buildings on fire when we were having meetings. It was all her."

She looked up with a smirk on her face when everyone looked at her until a broad shouldered man called Rick walked next to her. She shuffled her chair closer to the wall in effort to get away from him.

"So then," He paused and looked around thoughtfully, "How much is she paying you to be her fuck buddy and allow her in the gang."

Jake and Tyrone both took sharp intakes of breath from beside me while my rage began to grow. Then a sweet giggle from the red-haired girl filled the room.

That noise was never good.

She slowly stood up from her chair and faced Rick, he towered over her small frame with his bulging muscles and height, but Harley always won.

"That wasn't a very nice thing to say." She peered up at him through her long eyelashes, before her eyes became cold.

"You hurt our feelings!"

Then everything turned chaotic.

It was like it happened in slow motion. She winked at Rick and threw herself against his large body, pushing him into the wall. Tyrone's large body jumped up and ran towards the scene in front of us. Harley had managed to position her and Rick in a way that her arms were wrapped around his neck, and one wrong move would snap it but if he struggled to much then he'd suffocate.

"Harley." I have her a bored look.

She giggled at me,"Hi Ryder."

"Could you do me a big favour and let go of him?" As soon as the words left my mouth, her smile dropped but she let go. He fell to the floor, choking and gasping for air.

I turned to everyone that was watching, "Does anyone else want to question my decision?"

Everyone shook their heads frantically.

Before I could tell Harley to come with me, she reached down into her shoe and pulled out her dagger. She quickly turned around and plunged the dagger into Rick's leg.

That's my girl.

He screamed out in agonising pain when she pulled it out. "If you don't bleed out, i'll come and kiss it better later."
